Surprised we don't have anything going on this topic. See if it goes anywhere, but I came here to ask for support on the Oculus/Quest.
Family got me a Quest 2 for my bday. I've been holding out for the next release and/or PSVR2, but eh, I'll take it!
Suggestions for best games to play on it?
I picked up a few accessories too:
- Strap with Battery and Carrying Case - https://www.amazon.c...
- Fat Sweaty Man Visor - https://www.amazon.c...
Any others I should be looking at?
Thanks!

There’s also Airlink, so you don’t need a cord technically, you just may want to use one depending on performance (afaik)

I haven't gone back after an initial failed attempt, but my airlink would not work. I have a fantastic home network and I couldn't acclomopish anything at all.

Got my cable and just wow, Half-Life Alyx is amazing. I'm afraid of playing for long stretches with my computer running as hard as it does, but wow.

I got Lucky's Tale on sale a bit ago and finally played a few levels. It's super simple and very, very, very easy but it's absolutely gorgeous and really charming. It's really relaxing to play and has been a nice pallet cleanser between other games. I really like VR platformers and this is quality, even if there's no real challenge.

@Porksta - I finally moved stuff over into that backpack bag I listed earlier. Definitely more roomy than the others, gives you options for additional accessories. Worth it.

Looks like the cost of each headset will be going up $100, so you only have a few more days if you are on the fence!

Looks like just a price hike on 8/1. Weird.
Edit: Price increase of $100 + you get Beat Saber for free. More weird.

Yah, saw this. Blaming it on cost of goods. Tonal recently did this too. We bought the day before it jumped $500 a few weeks ago.
Definitely time to snag one if you haven't yet.

I'm glad I bought when I did then. I bought my Quest 2 over a week ago, but didn't get all the accessories until this past Monday. I now have the Bobovr strap, face shield with fan, and case. This thing is pretty sweet! I've only dabbled with a few of the apps and games so far, but I'm already happy with my purchase.

Trying to tell if my Elite Strap is broken or not. I can make it tight by just pushing on the back part, I do not need to turn the wheel. Making it bigger requires a wheel turn. Can't remember if that's how it is by default or if I did something to it.

Bro, i'm telling you......Alien: Isolation with the VR mod........so easy to set up. You have to use a regular xbox style controller though. Your heart may not let you finish the experience haha.

God I loved that game. Experiencing that in VR would be a rush!

Don’t play that game that makes you fall through your coffee table.

As some of you may know, I'm a huge Tetris fan. While I have Tetris Effect on my PS4, I've been disappointed in it in some ways, mainly how the playing field seems too distant and the bar showing the upcoming pieces is often obscured by the dazzling effects. I've been wanting to play it on my Oculus Quest 2, but I wouldn't purchase it because I refuse to play Tetris with an analog stick. Luckily, the other day, I found out that you can connect a PS4 controller to it! The game was on sale last night, so I bought it and spent the next three hours or so playing it.
Man, now this is the way that it was meant to be! The playing field is close and the effects do not hamper my view in any way. Now I can fully appreciate this game.

Does the ps4 controller thing work for other games on Quest 2, is it easy to set up?
Does it work with DualSense?
I know i could google it, but still :D

I don't think it works with most games. I tried a couple, but it just wasn't recognized. In the Oculus main menu, you can't use your analog sticks to navigate the menus. You have to point by maneuvering a cursor with your head and then pushing the X button on your controller. I only new that it worked with Tetris because I read a few posts somewhere online where people were talking about it.
It was easy to set up. I went into the oculus phone app and was able to set it up there. These two links were useful:

Is that the touch pad thingy on the controller? I have no idea.

That's how I am a lot of the time. I'd rather just ask you guys a lot of this stuff.

@citizen_zane this is awesome news, had no idea. I have Tetris Effect on my Oculus and will definitely check this out. Thanks for the heads up!
Safe to assume a PS5 controller would work as well yeah?
